A meeting of war is often referred to as a "war council." This gathering typically involves military leaders and advisors who come together to strategize, plan operations, and make critical decisions regarding the conduct of the war. War councils have played significant roles throughout history in determining military tactics and overall war strategy.
The allies principle strategy, that ultimately won them the war, was opening up the war to be fought on multiple fronts. What this means is that Germany would have to fight the allies from multiple directions. The German's blitzkreig (lightning war) strategy made them very difficult to take them on directly. However, by opening up the Germans to have to defend against both the French side and the Russian side (and eventually the Italian side, once they had been taken), meant that they would have to spread out troops to fight in multiple areas.
One notable meeting place that was not used by Allied leaders during World War II is the city of Paris. While Paris was occupied by Nazi Germany, the Allied leaders met in various locations such as Tehran, Yalta, and Potsdam to discuss military strategy and post-war plans. The choice of locations often reflected security concerns and the political dynamics of the time.
